(+) Yeah! (+)

Ding Dong The Racist Is Gone!!

38 y/o Prick, Louie Bernard Revette from Mississippi has been sentenced to 11 YEARS in the big house after he BURNED CROSSES near an african american family home!!

He was sentenced by US District Judge, Keith Starrett after Revette plead guilty in April to one count each of interference with housing rights, which is a federal civil rights violation and the use of fire during the commission of federal felony

He admitted to recruiting people to help him build a cross to burn near the home of a teen in a predominantly black area of Seminary on October 24, 2017 and admitted to THREATEN or frighten and intimidate people because of their race as it WORKED "back in the day" according to his testimony

He said "I want everyone to know i'm not proud of what happened. I hate what i did. I can't even believe i did that. I never done anything like that before in my life. I have learned the errors of my actions"

Seminary is a town with 300 residents just south of Jackson

His accomplice, Graham Williamson plead NOT GUILTY and is scheduled to be sentenced in November

None of the victim's families were in court as the newspaper reported that the victim's grandmother, Rose Marie Shears that the cross burning revived fear and terror of the past as they feared the men would return ot harm the family.

Cross Burnings have historically been used by racist groups such s the KKK to rally supporters and terrorize black people

Mike Hurst, the US Attorney said "Those who instill fear and terror into our neighbors and our fellow citizens because of the colour of their skin will face the full weight and force of the law from the US Attorney's Office"

Other cross burnings ahve occurred in Georgia, Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Arkansas and Ohio

Do you believe this racist when he says he's learned his lesson and is a "changed man"?

Ok, I am aware of the connotation of the KKK burning crosses...

BUT... I don't know the relationship between black people and crosses. They're not all Christians, is there a deeper meaning?

Not trolling; I don't legit know.
